Bubble Repairs
The bubble membrane and cables were successfully repaired by Bridome at the start of the month, but we're still ironing out critical issues with the inflation unit. We appreciate your patience during this essential maintenance. Special thanks to Karen and Chris Clark for their dedicated support on-site all day Saturday, helping Bridome ensure the smooth operation of our bubble!
Clay Courts
Each clay court has now been equipped with additional drag mats and line brushes stationed at both ends, ensuring we have enough maintenance tools to efficiently tend to all courts simultaneously, particularly during peak times such as squads and socials. Thank you to Chris Clark for not only assembling these tools but also for sourcing and preparing the hooks needed to hang the equipment on the fences. Further thanks to Chris for his efforts in repairing the arms of one of our "new" court benches, which unfortunately sustained damage during Storm Ciaran.
New Bungalow Tenant
We're pleased to announce that new tenants have moved into the bungalow and will be responsible for overseeing security at the club. Thank you to Sue Holland for her assistance in managing security during the interim period between tenants, as well as for her dedicated efforts in coordinating repairs to the fences and gravel area in the bungalow garden.
